Club Dubbo will host the NSW Junior 7-a-Side Championships on July 12 and 13 while more than 80 juniors will then be part of the 22nd annual Noel Soane Pairs tournament on July 14.
In total, more than 120 junior bowlers from across will head west for the sixth time this prestigious event will be held west of the mountains.
Fourteen teams will compete, with each comprising of a singles player, and a pairs and a fours team.
On the Tuesday, July 12, teams are grouped into four sections, and following three games, each discipline is ranked from one-tot-16 and then sectioned into four groups for Wednesday, depending on the rankings.
On Wednesday, there are two games that will determine the final rankings in each discipline.
First, second and third medals are awarded to each of the singles, pairs and fours, and a perpetual shield is presented for the best performed zone team across the weekend.
Zone 4 will field two teams due to a lack of participation of one other zone.
As a bonus this year for the juniors, Bowls NSW staff and coaches will hold a training day prior to the competition beginning. The training will run from 1pm to 3pm on July 11 and more than 100 kids are expected to attend.
Anyone seeking more information about the event can contact Club Dubbo bowls manager Anthony Brown on 6884 3000, or visit the West Dubbo Men's Facebook page.
